As some of you may remember last month I had posted a link to MVP x2 Cup Holder and said I bet this would fit 2 Grands in a cup holder (without damage/abrasion). I questioned the good folks at Jwraps to confirm and they promised me the slots would be too small to fit Reo Grands. I never tried, I took them at their word and moved on but I bugged them long enough and hard enough to build a prototype. And get this; I'm going to be a beta tester..... (I know, right) shocked. Last time I beta tested anything it was a Beta-Max, ya know like 1980's Sony.

Anyhow I'm elated that the Reo has become mainstream enough to receive support from a company like Jwraps for more than just generic vinyl wraps. (Nothing against the wraps but just not my cup of tea). I will keep you posted about anything that develops but it seems like it will be released sooner than later.

*I have no affiliation with JWraps or any of its affiliates or holdings and other than a free test piece I stand to gain nothing other than assisting the "Reonati" any way I am able.

Sweet! If it looks better than my homemade one, I'll buy two.:)

Hey Chowda, if I send mine to you when they come out, will ya autograph it for me :)

Great job getting it in the works, now how about asking Rob about a 26650 Grand :ohmy:

Definitely. I haven't done a lot of research into the 26650 lately but the last time I looked the technology and energy density was nowhere near the 18650 given the 26650 is 30-40% bigger. But it has possibilities.

Sony has one out capable of 50amps but capacity seems low at 2600mah. I've seen them advertised for about $9.00.
